A makeover like no other!

Anna Grace had a birthday this week. She wanted to go to Popeye's for dinner and have a sleepover. Sleepovers mean entertaining children for longer than I usually have patience for. We decided to decorate sugar cookies instead of having a cake to take up some time. I also had the fun idea to do makeovers. Not makeovers on the 7-9 year old girls...no...makeovers on a couple of adults done by 7-9 year old girls.

The participants before their fabulous makeovers...

Natalie...also known as mom.

Ms. Morton...also known as the Elementary Principal! I mean what kid wouldn't love to give their principal a makeover?

My make-up and hair artists, Abby and Mikah. This is pretty much what they did the entire time. Lots of giggling as they worked on me.

Annie and Anna Grace were tasked with making Ms. Morton beautiful. They got right to work!

It was very hard to keep a straight face when two giggling girls were trying to put lipstick on me. I did find it interesting that they started with the lipstick. Obviously they hadn't done this before!

Ms. Morton was powdered properly.

Amazing! The perfect style for back to school. Easy and no fuss!

Here we are after our amazing makeovers.

I gave the boys the job of taking pictures. There were lots of blurry ones and very few I could actually use! There were no pictures taken of my hair styling despite the fact that it took quite a long time. I was braided and rebraided several times before they declared it done. Thanks to Ms. Morton for being a great sport!
